An initiative started by students at Cardinal Ritter College Preparatory High School in St. Louis to stand up against gun violence is continuing its mission to be a Movement Not Moment.

A second march and rally against gun violence was hosted Feb. 24, drawing hundreds of students from several high schools across the St. Louis area. The march started at Wohl Recreation Center in north St. Louis and continued along Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard, ending with a rally at Cardinal Ritter about two-and-a-half miles away.

Movement Not Moment is a student-led effort that Cardinal Ritter Prep started in partnership with the Urban League of Metropolitan St. Louis. In December 2021, the school hosted a march and rally in response to the death of Isis Mahr, a 2020 Cardinal Ritter graduate who was returning home from work at an elderly care facility when she was shot and killed.
